Chapter 378 Grab Lunch Together
Jenny couldn’t exclude that possibility. She tried to console herself. People had exes, even her-it was
normal. But the fear that she might just be a substitute terrified her.
Jenny hated how fragile she felt. It had never been like this before she got into this relationship. She
couldn’t stop imagining what Alec was up to when he wasn’t spending time with her.
Did he still talk to that other woman?
She even considered asking Alec who that woman was and whether she was just her substitute. She

these doubts from her mind. But Alec only got busier and busier with work, increasing her
anxiety.
“Hey Steph, wanna grab lunch together?” Jenny finally called Stephanie. She needed to find someone to
vent to before she lost her mind.
Stephanie was already waiting for her at the café, and she immediately noticed the weird look on Jenny’s
face.
“What happened? You don’t look okay. Have you been getting enough rest?”
“Yeah.” Jenny sighed.
“Talk to me.” Stephanie was worried now. She had never seen her friend like this.
Jenny ordered an Americano to wake herself up. “It’s just some things that have been on my mind.”
Stephanie propped her chin on her hands and stared at Jenny closely. “Is this because of Alec?” She
had witnessed the moment they admitted they were together, so she had hoped for the best for her
friend’s love life. She didn’t expect problems would arise so soon.
Jenny nodded.
“Has he been ignoring you? Is there some other woman?” Stephanie was getting irritated at Alec.

Jenny felt like laughing. “It’s nothing much, really. I just found out he has an ex.”
Stephanie gaped in surprise before finally smiling. “Is that why you got upset?”
Ah, women. Always worrying in a relationship.
“Not upset…just…uncomfortable.” Jenny then explained how Alec’s ex looked just like her.
Stephanie patted her shoulder. “You really don’t need to worry about this, Jen. She’s just an ex. It’s not
gonna interfere with your relationship with Alec. Plus, he would really be an idiot for ditching an amazing
woman like you. If anything, dump him. You’ll score way bigger fish than him.”
Jenny was way too into Alec right now, but Stephanie could empathize. This was Jenny’s first serious
relationship, after all. The one in the past hadn’t been like this.
“He’s not terrible, you know,” Jenny sighed. She knew this was Stephanie’s way of consoling her.
